Re: Adapter for Zeiss Conterex to Canon EOS

Hello John,

I would ask the guys from happypagehk in HongKong. They offer adaptors for different mounts, maybe also for your contarex-lens. I bought my Leica-R to EOS-EF adaptor with AF-confirm. It works very good.

Re: Adapter for Zeiss Conterex to Canon EOS

No Joy, I had checked their list. The Contarex was a strange beast to say the least. I do like happypagehk's adapters for my Ziess and Zuiko 21mm's.

Way back in the '60's the Contarex had apperture controlled from the body with a few exceptions via a very complex mechanical linkage. So you can't manually set the apperture. The 250 Sonnar and 18mm Distagon were the few exceptions.

This going to have to be custom project.
